Management of Unruptured AVMs: The Pendulum Swings
Previous central nervous systems Oncology Scan articles in this publication have discussed treatment and molecular characterization of low-,1 intermediate-,2 and high-grade3,4 gliomas, controversies in the management of brain metastases,5-8 and evolving approaches to atypical meningiomas.9 Although arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are nononcologic entities, optimal management of patients with this disease presents many of the same questions involved in the treatment of low-grade tumors: when, whom, or even if to treat.
